Company Promo Vehicle!!! - VOTE HERE! - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

TST,

During the next 3-6 months I will be researching and looking at various options for an official The Wright Agency promo vehicle to take to events, car shows, deliver policies, and just drive around town as a form of advertising.

I thought id open this up and see what everyone thinks would make a cool vehicle for this specific use. Keep in mind it will need to be somewhat versitile, affordable, and also have a bit of a "WOW" Factor to it.

Some ideas i have are:

Scion XB, FJ Cruiser, Honda Element, Jeep (not sure which model)

Your Ideas?????

Solstice wouldn't be bad. But you seem to be leaning toward the SUV's.

pearl · 04-24-2008, 01:06 PM

i would pick them in the order you listed them as. that FJ would be dope though

lownslow95 · 04-24-2008, 01:06 PM

I would go with the Jeep.

get a used 2004 VW Touareg V10 TDI. They are low 30s now, convert it to run bio fuel, advertise how green your company is. Get one equipt with saddle leather, sit back and enjoy everything you could ever want in a car right at your fingertips:

Jon@WrightAgency · 04-24-2008, 01:11 PM

Woah, some quick replies in here.

I guess i forgot to mention this, but listing WHY you pick the car you pick would be a help too - maybe you will point out something i never thought of.

Thanks!!!!!

i vote for my STi to be the promo vehicle

Jon@WrightAgency · 04-24-2008, 01:13 PM

Eurotrashed,

GREAT POST man. That is def something to think about - although converting that car to "bio fuel" as you say doesnt sound cheap. Do you have more info on that? PM me if you do. Also, i just sold a Cayenne so i am familiar with that platform and like it very much. Good pick.

Does that mean you are donating it to me??? Man, what a pal

eurotrashed · 04-24-2008, 01:15 PM

Well technically you can run the car right on veggy oil. I think you can convert it properly for about a grand. From what I understand you get an aux fuel tank for the bio fuel, and have a switch on the dash that you hit to go from diesel to bio when things heat up. i'll see if i can get a more detailed explination

haha no that means i want you to pay me to drive it around.

CleanNeon98 · 04-24-2008, 01:16 PM

xB cause its a big box that you can strech company vinyl on easily..the FJ is just too bulky and tuareg is a lot

Plus the xB is the most fuel efficient of the bunch, cut down on company expenses

blkZ06 · 04-24-2008, 01:17 PM

Cut me a deal on insurance and you can borrow one of mine

eurotrashed · 04-24-2008, 01:20 PM

heres a link to a forum all about VW TDIs running bio fuel:

17/23 MPG I believe in a Touareg TDI and more torque than a Viper!

CHAOS · 04-24-2008, 01:22 PM

this kid really wants you to get a touareg lol

**Ender81** · 04-24-2008, 01:23 PM

I said the solstice because it is cheap, sporty and makes an impression because they are relatively new. Also on a personal note they are a blast to drive from event to event lol.

So far you are making the most sense...and that was actually my first pick as well. I think a white one with blue graphics would look cool. Thanks for reassuring me - although i am still VERY MUCH open to other ideas as those cars are kinda slow hahaha.

Shoot me an email and we can talk. If you become a client of mine i can certainly come up with something creative to help us both out.

CHAOS · 04-24-2008, 01:26 PM

im all seriousness, i say a toyota Highlander. great cars, comfortable, reasonably powerful, etc etc etc

lownslow95 · 04-24-2008, 01:26 PM

I said the Jeep because its comfy, rides nice, big factor is its a JEEP, and plus you can get it with a hemi

not the best on gas though.
